hey, i dunno who still reads this shit but sorry i havent updated in a while, it turned out i had ball cancer after all

seriously though if i cant mediafire you dudes some records from a hospital bed i just dont have any business at the forefrontof the blogosphere do i?

anyway they have me on some sweet ass painkillers

this is a tape i recorded with my 2 main dudes, arthur and preston, over summer

preston records as presstones, you can peep his shit here http://www.myspace.com/gorseloops

arthur has a myspace with some ok stuff on it but hes done a lot better shit in the last few months, heres my favorite thing hes sent me and his space www.myspace.com/thearthur4

oh heres my stuff www.myspace.com/fiftythousandbees

i mean preston is definitely steering a lot of the tape, since he was mostly the one in charge of the loops, he's the one doing the weird little guitar figures, arthur is doing the more riffy stuff and i think he played some keyboard, i'm doing oscillator and samples

side 1 is pretty good, side 2 is easily the best recording ive ever been a part of

oh also, stolen link but heres the soundtrack to limits of control, the new jarmusch movie

i feel like if i hadnt been on tons of painkillers i woulda found it super boring but i absolutely loved it

chris doyle shot it, he's the dude who shot all the wong kar wai movies, all my friends are super gay for him
/
its basically an ambient movie, theres enough snappy dialogue to keep it moving, but its all basially within a vacuum, everyone just riffs about one topic, patterns repeat, and we get a bunch of absolutely beautiful desert shots

also the soundtrack is fucking perfect, sunn, earth, boris, black angels, jarmusch's band Bad Rabbit, totally fits

i love the desert, and i love droney rock anf i love this movie

here, i bought you this record, it is the best record

t

gang of four - chicago 79

the first gang of four record is pretty awesome, i used to listen to it allthe time, and then i got this in 11th grade and i dont think ive ever listened to it all the way through since

its basically all those songs but louder and a little faster and punchier with more abrasive guitar

plus it has that 'armalite rifles' song, that shit rules

last couple weeks

this is the best thing ive heard in a really really long time, finally bit the bullet and picked it up on vinyl this week

yknow when you read reviews, especially aquarius reviews, and super fuckin especially for psych and noise stuff, and they make it sound totally incredible and compare it to a bunch of stuff you love and then it you finally hear it and its just another decent like, burnt hills record you listen to once

moon duo sounds exactly like the way people talk about wooden shjips

i mean its the main wooden shjips guys side project, but its basically shjips minus everything about them that i dont like

nothing but fuzzed out organ, guitar, feedback, minimal drum machine, and some echoey distorted vox, it sounds like these guys listen to nothing but cale era vu bootlegs and the first 2 mary chain records and suicide . so far they've only got an ep and a 12", so i dont know whats really gonna come next, but i'm really fucking excited. theyre playing at the hemlock november 20. i emailed them and they said they'd rather I didnt post the ep, so here's my 2 favorite songs of theirs

speed
love on the sea

too many humans

this will really bum your parents out

no trend - 2 many humans

yknow what this reminds me of? if the hunches decided to cover flipper

brutal, slow, noisy as fuck punk

cant find my burning star core comets on fire collab lp right now, here's a track they did together for some magazine comp that i actually like even more

comets on fire + burning star core: street wars

this shit is so fucking heavy dudes

da loudest
